obama won that in the campaign. the problem that the speaker faces is his members won on a campaign platform they were going to lower taxes for high-income folks. it's a tough sell to get his members to do that, which they don't want to do. on the other hand his members know that the end game will be taxes go up on the it top 2%. either they'll have the maneuver of two votes so everybody has a face-saving way forward on the revenues, or we'll wait until january and put a tax bill on the floor where they maintain their commitment to groefrer norquist and vote at that point for lower taxes. >> you are one of the democrats who has indicated in the past you'd be willing to go off the so-called cliff if that's awhat it takes to get a good deal. are you at all concerned the message that that sends to the markets, the message that sends potentially to consumers as well during this busy holiday shopping season? >> i am. you know, it's another indication of congressional dysfunction. so it's not anything that's particularly
